Abstract

This chapter discussed the potential usefulness of robot-assisted therapy for motor recovery after a stroke. An overview of the available literature was performed providing up-to-date information about the use of robot-assistive technology in rehabilitation practice. The chapter discussed the rationale for the use and the different machines in terms of basic engineering principles and the related rehabilitation possibilities. Finally, clinical and rehabilitative implications of the findings were critically discussed.
